Wheel to Wheel's "Heretic" (http://www.w2wpowertrain.com/t-heretic-2.aspx)
The Heretic project will be one of the newest bad boy cars to be built by Wheel to Wheel. As could be expected from us it will be an LS based engine, the chassis is a little less predictable. A 2006 Ford Mustang will be home to the twin turbo LS turning out at least 1000HP. Wheel to Wheel and powerTV feel that combination will aptly fit the Heretic name. If tangling GM and Ford were not enough, will be built with street manners, low 9 second ET capability and some lateral handling.
Unlike previous vehicles built here, you will be able to see this project come to life on a choice of online video channels, including LSX TV, Street Legal TV and NMRA TV. The exact filming and release schedule has not yet been determined, but will take place starting early in 2007.
The exact specifications of the car are still being worked out, but here is what we know now.
- Over 400 cid, most likely 427
- 4L80E transmission
- Twin Turbonetics turbos and Spearco intercooler
- Sherwin Williams crushed glass paint
- Street to strip adjustable suspension
- 10 point roll cage
- 'Octane on demand' fuel system click here for more fuel system info

The power of viral marketing will allow all the aftermarket companies being interviewed by powerTV to be able to get their new products to market faster than any other type of media available today.”
